Hi Maria,
Superb combination with police bikes in front of police building. Excellent light and superb side POV. The tight crop without other distractions is superb. Well done. Wish you a very nice weekend.
Greetings

p.s. To answer your question, I bought plenty of nuts and spices in Kerala (and brought a full bag of photos).

Hello Maria,
What a nice composition with repeating patterns! Great clarity, color and light management. An adorable photo for someone like me who likes vehicular and architectural photos, this combines two of my favorite themes.

Hello Maria,
Very good composition to capture the police building. Well framed with the bikes and the branches. Very good light and bright natural colors make this shot attractive.
Thanks for sharing,

Hi Maria,
A very impressive building, I like this style, like an industrial Romanesque, with stout strong walls, perfect for its use! And I love your composition, including the police bikes like this give a perfect sense of use to the building, and they fill the lower frame wonderfully.
Thanks as always
Noel

Hello Maria
The composition is the eye-catcher. Red lights of the bikes against symmetrical pillars of the building, is wonderful. Very good light and perfect colors.
You are lucky... here in India, it is very risky to photograph a police station.
Thanks for sharing.

Hola querida Maria,
an original point of view to an unusual police station. The architecture and the sunshine remind me of public buildings constructed during the Italian occupation in the Dodecanese. Your picture is well composed and has a clear and interesting distinction of layers. The bikes offer depth, interest and colour to the foreground. There's great definition on the building as well, the sunshine has offered pleasant colours and vividness, the shade has been rendered effectively too. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great Sunday,
Ourania

So, what exactly were you doing here at the police station....in a little bit of trouble, hmmm?? :) Well, there's never a shortage of "company" here, I'm assuming you made plenty of new friends. jaja

I'm loving the opposing angles of the police bikes and perspective from the building itself, kind of a criss-cross pattern. The arches also make for a great repetitive shape to go along with the entire scene, and the lone individual in passing is just the right touch.

I can't recall ever seeing a police headquarter building featured here, so I applaud the originality. It's bright, colorful and sharply focused...a solid entry for TE! Nice work from down South. :)

Hola Maria,
I am glad you decided to come back to this trip. This reportage is again so interesting for us as you have seen so many places rarely visited by Europeans or at least less popular that other places. Great geometry of the composition here with the repeated element of the arch and the motorbike as well.
Very well seen and captured.
I like it very much,
M

Nice repetition of both the Spanish styled arches and the tilted fg motorbikes parked in the street. Good sharpness and color saturation. I like the receding perspective from left to right. National Police HQ in English if I am not mistaken? And they do a good job too. Tfs!

From the small thumb image, I thought those red lights were roses :) I feel more secure traveling in some countries, knowing there are police station near by. I like the inclusion of the motor bike it adds depth to you image and those beautiful roses :)

Have a good weekend, and if we don't connect between now and then, I wish you a very Merry Christmas.
